Re: N Daicos
He is certainly a great player and was probably BOG but the media keep quoting his disposal stats to emphasise his excellence. However he takes all the kick-ins for opposition behinds which inflates his stats significantly. For example today he had 40 disposals which would have only been 29 without ...

Re: Match Thread Saints v Blues Round 6 2023
Steele only 2 touches?? Phillipou, Steele, Membrey....all ineffective. Pretty good strategies by Voss so far. He was and is a clever bastard.

Re: Cordy vs Owens
I can't see that he has made a significant contribution in any game this year, including the practice matches.
Surely Campbell would contribute more as both a 2nd ruck and around the ground.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Pies Round 5 2023
How many did Daicos get??? Who was assigned to him?! Surely that’s who is dropped??? I struggled with that as well, but just maybe RL wanted to keep a few cards up his sleeve for later in the year Remember 10 of his recorded possessions were from kick-ins from our points scored. On that basis Crouc...

I listened to the game from o/s on the ABC. Is "Curly" Malthouse's secret ID?! I know a lot of posters on here have no time for him but for mine he's St Kilda tragic through to the bone. \\ I didn't hear Malhouse's comments but I have no doubt the Pies had the rub of the green from the um...

Frees 10 to 4 against the Saints to half time.
Hopefully the umps try to even it up a bit in 2nd half.

Re: Match Thread Saints v Pies Round 5 2023
Paton has to learn not to kick into the man.
Twice it created scoring opportunities for Collingwood including a goal.
Maybe Gresham too from his scarce possessions.

Re: Membrey named
The debate is more about the actual efficacy of Cordy in the structure. You are correct in that the role he’s playing is one of relief ruck and tall forward and that there’s no one else that fits the bill other than Campbell that could specifically do that. However… Cordy’s hit out returns so far 1...

Re: Early days bur the Blues are weak.

Most tip them for top four again.

Re: Improved Accuracy
Only a small sample but I can't help noticing our improved shooting for goal this year. So often in recent years have our behinds outnumbered our goals in matches. This has been the reverse this year in all matches and our collective tally for the first four matches is 55 goals 34 behinds. The figu...

Re: Tribunal is a joke
The favourable treatment of some clubs and some players at the tribunal is a farce.
He no longer plays for our club, but we all observed how harshly the tribunal has treated Ben Long compared to others.

Re: Synchronised breathing
It certainly didn't help us get a quick start last year.
We were slow out of the blocks in so many games last year, even early in the year when we were winning matches.
I think the opposition scored the first couple of goals in less than 2 minutes in our first 3 games from memory.
